DETAILED DISCLOSURE More in particular, the alkyl radicals symbolized by This invention concerns new N,N-bis-(bis-amino-s-tri- R3 and R4 can be Substltuted by halogen atoms Such as fluorine, chlorine, or bromine atoms, or by hydroxyl groups. Preferably such substituted alkyl radicals have not more than 5 carbon atoms. The alkyl radicals of the alkylamino group symbolized by X contains preferably from 1 to 5 carbon atoms.

The following classes of s-triazines are particularly valuable as main components in the surface treating agents according to this invention.

(I) Compounds of the formula azinyl)-alkylamines in which up to 3 of the amino groups may be heterocyclic ring structures such as pyrrolidino, 4-(lower alkyl)-piperazino, piperidino, morpholino or hexamethyleneimino. These compounds are useful as surface treating agents and are the principal components of new surface treating compositions such as shoe polishes. Certain of these compounds also find utility as textile 40 softening agents.

By surface treating agents in the present description are meant agents which can be used for the protection B1 and conservation, e.g. by coating or waxing, of surfaces I of all types such as, for example, agents for the treatment N of surfaces of inorganic materials such as metal, stone, tile, etc., and of organic materials such as wood, leather, 3;,

III synthetic plastics (e.g. linoleum), textiles, paper, etc. wherein More particularly, the surface treating agents according to this invention comprise, as principal constituent, s-tri- A has the Same meaning as in Formula I, azine derivatives f the f ul B represents pyrrolidino, morpholino, piperidino, N-

N (lower alkyl)-piperazino or hexamethyleneimino, and C represents the same substituents as A, or as B or it H represents the grouping N C (I) wherein: I

in which each of R and R represents lower alkyl, A represents the group R1 preferably of from 2 to 5 carbon atoms, substituted by hydroxyl, chlorine, bromine or fluorine; in the latter case, C represents also a trifluoromethyl amino group. The compounds of Formula III in which C represents in which R represents a lower alkyl radical, namely A B r readily em 1sifiabl an alkyl radical of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R (II) Compounds f th f r l represents :an alkyl radical having from 10 to 18 carbon atoms,

R N l N Brepresents the group C1( WN;g j-O 1 N LI N I l 2 1 A (IV) 3 wherein A .and C have the same meanings as in Formula III, B represents the same as A or as B in Formula III,

and R represents alkyl of from 1 to 5 carbon atoms.

(III) Compounds of the formula in which A and C have the same meanings as in Formula III.

Among the compounds falling under Formulas III and IV, a subclass of compounds which fall under the formulas wherein A and R have the same meanings as given hereinbefore, are textile softening agents which impart relatively little or no water repellance to detergent-hardened textile materials softened therewith, e.g. to towels and the like goods in which water-repellency is not desirable. The compounds are preferably applied from alcoholic, e.g. from isopropanol solution. Application from glacial acetic acid solution is also possible but less desirable in view of smell and acidity of such agents, even after dilution with water.

On the other hand, a preferred class of compounds ac cording to the invention, which falls under the formulas Al IB.

wherein A and B have the same meaning as given hereinbefore, and

I I I I I C2 02 (X) wherein A has the same meaning as given hereinbefore,

mula

AI II ZL wherein A and R have the same meanings as given hereinbefore, are waxes of brown or dark-brown to brownish black shade and serve as polishing agents or principal constituents of such agents for polishing leather, e.g. shoe leather, especially also in order to retard the tendency of such leather to absorb water.

The waxes of the Formulas IX to XI, inclusive, given hereinbefore are readily emulsifiable. When used in major amounts (e.g. 20 to 70% by weight calculated on the total weight of solids) in surface-treating agents, especially in floor polishes, they impart to such polishes a certain gloss which is further enhanced by rubbing, e.g. with a soft cloth or the like, or, especially in the case of compounds of Formula IX, in which B represents N-(lower alkyl)- piperazino, and in the case of the compounds of Formula X, supra, by subsequent washing of such surface, in particular floors, with water or with alkaline detergents. This constitutes an important progress, because many commercially available floor polishes will show enhanced gloss after rubbing with, e.g. a soft cloth or a polishing brush, but will not withstand washing with water and especially not with alkaline agents.

In the compounds of Formula I, and especially in those of Formulas III, IV and V, the presence of at least one amino group having one shorter and one longer alkyl substituent as represented by A in those formulas, is necessary to obtain compounds suitable for use as main polish constituent in surface treating agents according to the invention.

The trisamino-s-triazine derivatives of Formula I have well defined melting points and wax-like properties; they can thus be used instead of commercial natural and synthetic waxes or together therewith for the treatment and finishing of surfaces of all types. They have the characteristic properties of natural waxes such as solubility in fatty solvents, miscibility with natural and synthetic waxes and, with the addition of suitable emulsifying agents, can be worked up in water to form finely dispersed emulsions. The new compounds produce coatings which are resistant to chemicals, particularly they have good stability to alkali. In their excellent suitability as waxes, they are equivalent for all practical purposes to the montanic acid esters.

Surface-treating agents according to the invention are obtained by mixing a trisamino-s-triazine derivative of Formula I or several such derivatives with the usual substances which are suitable for the treatment of surfaces. Such substances are, for example, the following: natural and synthetic waxes, resins, silicones, etc. which improve the physical properties, also solvents, as well as inorganic and organic fillers, e.g. silicates, milled plastics, anionic, cationic or non-ionic dispersing agents, cleansing agents such as, e.g. natural and synthetic soaps, tensioactive substances, pigments, agents to improve the stability to light, stabilizers of all types such as corrosion inhibitors, scents, dyestuffs, biocidal active substances or agents containing such substances, e.g. insecticides, fungicides, bactericides, etc' More particularly, the surface-treating agents according to the invention, for instance in the form of floor polishes, can also contain, besides a compound or compounds of Formula I, as main component, volatile solvents such as are used in wood-sealing agents, namely, ethyl acetate, acetone, methylethyl ketone, ethanol, toluene and the like.

The surface-treating agents according to the invention can be in the form of and used as aerosols, solvents, emulsions, semi-solid and solid pastes. The agents can thus serve to protect and to finish surfaces (e.g. polishing waxes) of all types, by which is also included the treatment of paper, e.g. the production of carbon paper.

Trisamino-s-triazines of Formula I wherein two bisamino-s-triazine radicals are bound together by the piperazine-1,4-diyl radical are known compounds. They can be obtained by reacting two molecules of a 2-halogen-4,6- bis-amino-s-triazine correspondingly substituted in the amino group with piperazine, the reaction being. performed at temperatures between 100 and 200 C., preferably in an inert gas atmosphere and optionally in the presence of an inert solvent and a proton acceptor.

The new tris-amino-s-triazines of the more restricted general formula I N A-f -13 N N ('3' wherein A and B have the meanings given in Formula I, and

C represents the pyrrolidino, piperidino, 4-methylpiperazino, morpholino or hexamethyleneimino radical or the group of the general formula (XIII) wherein B has the meaning given in Formula I and X represents an alkylamino radical, or when A and B represent the group wherein'each of R and R have the meanings given in Formula I,

are obtained according to the invention by reacting cyanuric chloride with (a) two mols of the same or with one mol of each of two different secondary amines containing the radicals R and R defined above and with one mol of a secondary amine containing the radicals R and R defined above, or p (b) with two mols of the same or one mol of each of two different secondary amines containing the radicals R and R defined above and with one mol of pyrrolidine, piperidine, 4-methylpiperazine, morpholine or hexamethyleneimine, or

(d) with one mol of a'secondary amine containing the radicals R and R defined above, one mol of pyrroliamine introducing the group of general Formula XIII defined above,

the reaction optionally being performed in the presence of a solvent or diluent and also a proton acceptor.

As solvent for the reaction of the first and second chlorine atom of cyanuric chloride, those usual for this reaction are used such as water, mixtures of acetone and water, other mixtures of organic solvents with water, halogen hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons. Inorganic bases such as the carbonates and hydroxides of alkali metals, and organic bases such as secondary and tertiary amines are used as proton acceptors. The reaction temperature for the exchange of the first chlorine atom is from -20 to +10 C., for the second chlorine atom from 10 to and for the third chlorine atom from 100 to 200 C.

The emulsion formed is cooled to room temperature and the mixture (b) and (c) are added one after the other while stirring.

The resultant dry-bright wax-polymer emulsion is excellently suited for the care of modern floors in that the coating itself possess a certain gloss which can, however, be increased by polishing to a value of 24.3.

The s-triazine derivative, which is used as a main component in the above-described surface-treating composition, is produced as follows.

185 parts of cyanuric chloride are dissolved in 100 parts of carbon tetrachloride and 87.1 parts of morpholine are added while stirring intensively at to A solution of 54 parts of sodium carbonate in 300 parts of water is then added. After stirring for 2 hours, a solution of 290 parts of N-methyl-N-n-octadecylamine in 1000 parts of carbon tetrachloride is added dropwise at 10 to 15 and then a solution of 54 parts of sodium carbonate in 300 parts of water is added dropwise.

N,N-bis-[2,4-di- (N-methyl N'-n-octadecylamino) -s-triazin- 6 -yl] -N- ethylamine is obtained which, after recrystallization from acetone, melts at 55-57". When this brownish-black substance is incorporated in a surface-treating agent of the composition given in Example 3, in lieu of the tri-substituted ethylamine component, and black boot leather is polished therewith, it is given a black gloss similar to that of a standard black boot polish, and a retarded tendency to absorb water.

Example 4 5.0 parts of 2 (N-methyl-piperazino)-4-morpholino- 6-(N"-methyl-N"-n-octadecyl-amino)-s-triazine are dissolved in 95.0 parts of isopropanol, if necessary while heating, whereupon a clear solution is formed. This solution is excellently suitable for softening textiles particularly cotton towelling which has become hardened by repeated Washing. Such goods are laid for a few minutes in a bath which contains 40 parts of the above-mentioned solution per 1000 parts by volume of water. After treatment in this bath, the goods are wrung out and dried in the air. Even greatly hardened and scratchy cotton towelling regains its original soft and fleecy handle. It is not rendered unduly water repellent by such treatment.

Similar good softener dispersions are produced as described in Example 4, supra, by replacing the 40 parts of isopropanolic 5%-softener solution used therein by the same amount of an isopropanolic 5%-solution of N,N- bis-[2,4 di (N methyl-N-n-octadecyl-amino)-s-triazinyl (6)] N-ethyl-amine, or by 4 parts of an isopropanolic 5%-solution of 2,4 di (N methyl-N-noctadecyl-amino)-6-[N-(fi-hydroxyethyl) N-(fl-chloroethyl) -amino] -s-triazine.

The melt is cooled to the Water is brought to the boil and is then added thereto, and the resulting mixture (a) is cooled to room temperature. This mixture (a) is obtained in the form of an emulsion to which the solution (b) is added. The resultant emulsion is excellently suitable for the care of modern floors, such as vinyl flooring.

Example 6 10 parts of 2,4-bis-[N-methyL-N-n-octadecyl-amino)-6- pyrrolidino-s-triazine were dissolved in 90 parts of isopropanel by heating to 90 on the water bath.

Leather samples were impregnated with this solution by immersion therein for 5 minutes, and then air-dried. The leather then contained about 13% of the aforesaid s-triazine, calculated on the dry weight of the leather.

The impregnated leather samples were then immersed for several hours in water together with untreated control samples of the same leather. While untreated leather absorbed water very rapidly, e:g. 100% (calculated on the weight of the dry leather) within the first hour, and a total of in 18 hours, the impregnated leather samples absorbed water much more slowly. Thus the amount of water absorbed reached 100% only after 18 hours.

This is due to an anti-slip elfect of the abovedescribed composition which is not shown in any comparable degree by a similar composition in which, however, N,N-bis-[2-morpholino-4-N-methyl n octadecylamino-s-triazinyl-(6)]-piperazine is replaced by an equal amount of the third of the above-mentioned constituents, namely montanic acid ester wax of M.P. 80-83 A.N. 20-30 and S.N. 135-150.

When vinyl asbestos plates are polished with the composition according to Example 7, on the one hand, and with the last-mentioned conventional triazine derivativefree composition on the other hand, and the dynamic slip resistance of the treated plates is measured, e.g. by Method N0. 30 of Standard Methods of Testing Paint, Varnish, Lacquer and Related Products," published as DEF 1053 by the British Ministry of Defence, then, the composition according to the invention shows a value of 9.1 lbs., while the conventional composition compared therewith shows a value of only 1.5 lbs. 1

If similar dynamic slip resistance values as shown by the aforesaid composition of Example 7 are to be attained also in the case of the conventional composition, a considerable amount of adjuvant such as finely dispersed silica would have to be added, but would lead to a strong reduction of gloss in the polished surface. Floors treated with the composition according to the invention therefore combine high gloss with pronounced slip-resistance.

12 Example 8 4.200 parts of 1,4-bis[2,4-bis-N-methyl-n-octadecylamino-s-triazinyl- (6) ]-piperazine, 1.355 parts of montanic acid ester wax (M.P. -83";

A.N. 20-30; S.N. -150), 4.200 parts of the same isocyanate polymeric wax as used in Example 7, 0.735 part of montanic acid wax (M.P. 80-83"; A.N.

-155; S.N. 160-180), 0.630 part of the same emulsifying agent as used in Example 1, 0.210 part of KOH 10%, 0.630 part of aminornethyl propanol, 62.04 parts of water;

3.50 parts of the same colophonium-modified phenolic resin as used in Example 1, 1.00 part of concentrated ammonia, 20.50 parts of water;

0.10 part of a condensation product of nonylphenyl and ethylene oxide (molar ratio about 1: 15), 0.90 part of water.

The components of the mixture (a), with the exception of water, and melted at the homogeneous melt is cooled to 100-110" and then slowly added, while stirring strongly, to the boiling water. The emulsion formed is cooled to room temperature and first the mixture (b) and then mixture (c) are added While stirring.

The resulting gloss-imparting emulsion wax composition is excellently suitable for the care of modern floors. When subjecting vinyl asbestos plates to a treatment with the composition according to Example 8 on the one hand, and with a similar composition in which the triazine derivative has been replaced by an equal amount of montanic acid ester wax (second component of the above composition) on the other hand, and testing the slip resistance of the differently treated plates in the same manner as described in Example 7, then a dynamic slip resistance of 8.6 lbs. is found in the case of plates treated with the composition according to Example 8 as compared with a value of about 1.5 lbs. in the case of the triazine derivative-free composition.

Floors treated with the composition of Example 8 thus combine high gloss, which is even enhanced after washing with water or alkaline detergents, with an unexpectedly high slip-resistance.

Example 9 Similar surface-treating compositions according to the invention are produced by replacing the triazine component in each of the compositions of the preceding examples by an equivalent amount of an s-triazine of the Formula I in which A, B and C represent the substituent groups shown in the respective columns of the following table.
